zenryan Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 4, 2014 -> 01:11 AM) Does anyone else think that last Clemson int was not a catch? I didn't think he ever really controlled it. I don't think he caught it. The espn ref expert was off his rocker a few times tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I think he controlled it and caught it once he was down and rolling over, but it was close. But a pass that bad? Give the benefit of the doubt to the pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think he ever really controlled it. I would have liked for it to have at least been reviewed. I don't think it would have been overturned, but it's crazy that they didn't even review a game deciding play. Meanwhile, Ohio St still hasn't beaten a Top 15 team under Urban. Time for OSU to start scheduling some better OOC games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recruiting is done for you as well as in your backyard, top notch facilities, huge fanbase, top paying job. The administration really screwed the pooch by letting everything get out about what they wanted to do with Mack Brown. If they had one ounce of secrecy then they probably could have had a bigger name like Saban or Mora, but no shame in Strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't just gonna look at total losses like the voters do now. If you are a one loss team that played nobody, I could see them instead selecting a two loss team with a much tougher schedule, even if both are BCS schools Edited January 4, 2014 by LittleHurt05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some teams may need an extra marquee win but most won't. Win your conference and your conference title game and you are most likely in. Even better when it goes to 8 teams.

You don't have to win your conference. They will just select the four best teams. It was a consensus that Alabama was a lock had the playoff been in place this year.

The good news is you won't have several folks with personal agenda effecting an average ranking like we have now. 2014, the first go round, will be an eye opener for sure. Hopefully pushing it to the 8 team we all know is coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also about the become less important. We also have Vt and Oklahoma home and homes in the next 4 years plus a larger conference slate. The Big 10 is terrible. That's what it has to do with it. If you lose a game, you're done. If you lose a game but have some big OOC wins, then you still might have a shot at making it into the playoff. Also, you need to play the best to beat the best. If you keep playing bad teams, then you're going to keep getting beat when you play the big dogs. Edited January 4, 2014 by dasox24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
